Museum Archive: Blue Fox Pixee , 3/4oz Pink Metallic fishing spoon #1908

Stamped clearly on the smooth reverse side with the manufacturer and weight, this Pink Metallic spoon is a standout piece of American-made tackle history. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) and weighing 3/4 oz (24 g), the heavy-gauge brass body is designed for long-distance casting even into coastal winds. This specific specimen, identified by product code 1908, features a vibrant textured scale pattern on the face, centered around a raised, simulated salmon egg insert. The hardware includes a strong, dark-finished treble hook and heavy-duty split rings. Originally produced by National Expert Bait (Nebco) before the brand's evolution into Blue Fox during the 1980s, the lure's construction allows it to tumble and roll naturally through river currents or lake depths. This lure remains unused, appearing exactly as it did when it first left the factory. The weight and balance make it suitable for a straight retrieve in salt water or for bouncing through deep pockets in freshwater streams.
